Leonardo Francisco 812b534653 validity: fix verify/identify stuck on non-matching finger
The VERIFY_WAIT_MATCH_INT state only advanced the SSM on interrupt
types 3 (match) or 5 (no-match), looping back to read_again for any
other type. However, the sensor only sends a single interrupt after
match_finger (cmd 0x5E). If the interrupt type is anything other than
3 or 5, the driver waited forever for another interrupt that never
arrives, causing fprintd-verify to hang.

python-validity's reference implementation treats any interrupt type
!= 3 as 'finger not recognized' and skips cmd 0x60 (get_match_result),
going straight to cleanup (cmd 0x62).

Fix: on interrupt type 3 (match), advance to VERIFY_GET_RESULT as
before. On any other type, clear stale result data and jump directly
to VERIFY_CLEANUP, skipping the unnecessary cmd 0x60.

History

LibFPrint was originally developed as part of an academic project at the University Of Manchester.

It aimed to hide the differences between consumer fingerprint scanners and provide a single uniform API to application developers.

Goal

The ultimate goal of the FPrint project is to make fingerprint scanners widely and easily usable under common Linux environments.

License

Section 6 of the license states that for compiled works that use this library, such works must include LibFPrint copyright notices alongside the copyright notices for the other parts of the work.

LibFPrint includes code from NIST's NBIS software distribution.

We include Bozorth3 from the US Export Controlled distribution, which we have determined to be fine being shipped in an open source project.
